Learning To Be A Mom All Over Again

     Isn't it crazy how different each of our children are, and yet we love them just the same?? I love it!
As I am sitting here spending time with my 3 month old daughter (WOW already!) I realize she is almost the exact opposite of her brother. She took to nursing so easily, but it took lots of hard work to be able to get my son to EBF for just a month. Which lead to a difference in the way they grew. L (my son) started at 9lbs 7oz but had such a struggle with getting him to eat and lost a good deal of weight at his 6 week check up he was 9lbs 12oz. You would never guess after seeing him these days. Now, he is such a strong and healthy toddler. A (my daughter) was 8lbs 6oz and was 12lbs 6oz at her 6 week check up and is still growing. A wont sleep in her own bed very long especially at night she "needs" to be with me to sleep ( i love it but would like a few hours to myself) and she always wants to be snuggled and loved on which I am super excited about. L was independent, he didn't want to be held as much he hated being rocked to sleep and would not sleep well if I tried to co-sleep.
     There are many other things I am starting to notice as A gets older but I will spare you of all the wonderful details of the differences between my children. :) With noticing their differences I know that I need to show them I love them in different ways that meet their specific needs. I'm still learning what that is for the both of them since they are still little but it doesn't change how much I love them or the fact that I would do anything for the both of them. Learning to be the mom they need me to be is not always easy but it's worth it to be able to know doing my best will more than likely lead them to do their best.
